Anger Management
FOUND by Sadie
I found this in the girl's bathroom at my high school, taped to the inside of a stall. I believe this girl.

Well, admitting that you have a problem is always the first step to recovery....right?

I think I've written a few notes like that myself.

I wish her luck.

Well, if you go by classic color=emotion theory, then I'd say I believe her too. Red usually means violence and anger. I wonder if she wrote this before or after she was in the bathroom stall. hmm.

I totally dig the quotation marks. I can picture the two-handed, double-finger, quote gesture. However the whole thing is a total cop-out. Either you are psycho or not. You live in a society, show some discipline and stay on your side of the dotted yellow line.

I live in probably the cleanest town in Massachusetts (except for, you know, the pot and such - everyone thinks they're hippies in my town, except none of them care at all about protecting animal rights or cleansing the universe). Anywho, Tuesday morning, two skinny freshman whores got in a "coffee fight". Yes, a coffee fight. One girl dumped basically a fountain of coffee on the other girl, and it escalated into a punch throwing, hair grabbing situation (it was out of control hilarious).

After the fight was broken up, some girl walked by and said "You have anger management issues".

I kid you not.

So possibly, this note was a byproduct of the coffee fight.

Danielle, I'm sorry but just bacause you live in the "cleanest" part of town except for the, you know...pot...What? Who cares!? Do you think the "pot" made the girls throw coffee?? If anything pot should calm their issues...get over yourself

Farals are nice, I sign my name with them.

I am still not comprehending if the issues are supossed to be a form of inuendo.

Yet another case of kids saying the darnedest things (in the terlet stall no less).

Terrance said s/he signs her/his name with a faral. It that the embelishment thingy at the bottom, or is it just three underlines and some scratches? I had to look up faral, and I can't find that word in any reference. Can someone enlighten me, please.

And thanks for the Tater Tot Hot Pot recipes from a while back. Good stuff.

Hey, Melissa. I don't think Danielle meant it like that. (Looks like marijuana does give the brain a little kick.) ;)

Anyways! Yea... anger management "issues". Kind of made me chuckle, but I hope she gets the help if she really does have anger problems.

improving in many ways
It's funny nobody else has noticed that this note was originally written with a different, lighter pen, and then somebody (else) went over it with red. Was this done by the person who posted it, or is there some other, odder explanation?

Melissa, what are you talking about? lol I think you read Danielle's comment wrong...were *you* the one who wrote this note? ^_^

I'm surprised that I didn't find this note taped to the back of one of the stalls in my office building!

I think someone told this person they have anger managment "issues" and the note is written in mochery, thus the quote marks. I think anyone pissed off enough wouldn't stop to think to write this. Instead they'd just scream and yell about how pissed off they are, or in high school, find their friends and talk smack about whoever pissed them off in the first place...or maybe leaving letters in the stall is some advanced form of note passing, or maybe this is cry for attention, or maybe this person is a fan of Found and plotted it out...the possibilities are endless...and I have far too much time on my hands..

I believe her too AND I believe that the fact that she DIDN'T tear up this note is a HUGE improvement.
She also didn't vandalize the stall - she wrote it on paper. THAT is a big, big step.
I wish her the best of luck - anger management is a life skill we all need more of and it's one to of the toughest anymore IMO.

Melissa in TX, might I suggest you smoke a bit more pot to calm *your* nerves? Then again, perhaps you've had enough....

I LOVE the quotes around 'issues'. Picture yourself when you were a teenager and then think of all those "helpful" (note the quotes) adults who thought they were telling you crap for your own good. Now repeat the phrase.... Tell me you didn't find yourself rolling your eyes, using a mocking and condescending tone right around "issues" and having the urge to snarl just a little bit. ;) Man, I need to hang this up on my wall at work....

I think that the person with these 'issues' didn't write the note. Rather, someone stuck it on her, as one stick on a "kick me" sign. The wearer found it when she paused to refresh, and instead of tossing it in the bin, took it off and jammed it on the door.

Believe me i know in michigan
no - she was just told that by her counselor - they are big inbto that now - instead of kicking us out of school for the day for arguing or fighting they say we have anger management issues and send us to therapy. while i was in gym class a kid threw my school clothes in the toilet so after class i couldnt change my clothes - real funny huh? so i kicked his ass in the school - now i have therapy once a week (that my parents have to pay for) if i want to stay in school and graduate. What lessons did that teach me or the other kid?

I like how you found it taped in a stall, at my highschool it would have been written all over that walls, and the stalls, along with '08 is the best...no whore '09 its our time...no slut oh thank heaven for '07....yes this is what highschool girls scirrble on the stalls while using the restroom it is all very disgusting I think.I would just like to say that I am glad she wrote it in a note bc not everyone using thetiolet wants to know she has "issues"

I don't care why she wrote it. I just got home and have been having a terrible week and for some reason this made me feel so much better!

lauren in colorado
does this find remind anyone else of Post Secret? it seems rather like a secret (or some sort of admission), left taped to the inside of the stall for some stranger to find... maybe she needed to "get it off her chest," so to speak (no pun or innuendo intended).

Why does the writing on this look so weird? Looks photoshopped on or something.

Poor girlie has self-esteem issues (more likely) acts out in frustration sometimes and is crying out for help. Seriously--too many kids like this these days.
Guessing the "ISSUES" indicates this is what she was told by a counsellor who just wanted to shuffle her out of his office. Poor thing...
I wish I could give her a hug, a cup of warm cocoa and the assurance that someone understands and cares and knows she is more than the sum of her "issues".
You'd be surprised what difference a sincerely concerned, non-judgemental and supportive adult can make to a young person like her.
